The shrines and temples of Kyoto offer a rare link between modern life in the city and its very ancient past. The Shimogamo Shrine dates to the 6th century and seems suspended in time, its serenity and spiritual power still palpable. Visit Fushimi Inari Shrine, then see the life-sized Thousand Armed Kannon statues of Sanjūsangen-dō. Enjoy traditional geisha performances, then savor a tranquil meal at a restaurant overlooking the Kamo River.

There are outdoor bath and indoor bath provided. It's a superb deal... I went to Kurama just for the autumn leaves and decided to have a spontaneous bath. Really happy I gave it a try. It's public but when I was there on a weekday, there were no more than 5 people. It isn't a big place, but good enough for me. For a real japanese experience yet not costing you much, this is the place to go. Tips for anyone who stay in Kyoto area for 3 days up : go get yourself a Kansai Thru pass, it will save a lot for the transport. Especially you will visit many spots in Kyoto where they are usually far from each other.

Natural hot spring Use sour sources that spring up from the premises Unusual sodium · calcium chloride fountain in Kyoto The body warms to the core, recovery from fatigue, also has effect on coldness It is open from 10 am to 1 am and the last reception is at 24 o'clock
Men and women are on separate sides. You must go naked but no one cares. I was the o lu non-Japanese woman in the onsen and it didn’t matter a bit. Amazing experience. Relaxing after walking for 17km around Kyoto. Very close to the Bamboo Grove. Highly recommend.

No photos allow inside the changing room.. but this is a must try if you want to experience Japanese culture. A very traditional local sento. Love the outdoor cold and hot sento...
